v3.0.0

[carhartl]

• Removed defaults in favor of a builder: now to supply an api instance with particular predefined (cookie) attributes there's Cookies.withAttributes(), e.g.:

const api = Cookies.withAttributes({
  path: '/',
  secure: true
})
api.set('key', 'value') // writes cookie with path: '/' and secure: true...

• The attributes that an api instance is configured with are exposed as attributes property; it's an immutable object and unlike defaults cannot be changed to configure the api.
• The mechanism to fall back to the standard, internal converter by returning a falsy value in a custom read converter has been removed. Instead the default converters are now exposed as Cookies.converter, which allows for implementing self-contained custom converters providing the same behavior:

const customReadConverter = (value, name) => {
  if (name === 'special') {
    return unescape(value)
  }
  return Cookies.converter.read(value)
}

• withConverter() no longer accepts a function as argument to be turned into a read converter. It is now required to always pass an object with the explicit type(s) of converter(s):

const api = Cookies.withConverter({
  read: (value, name) => unescape(value)
})

• The converter(s) that an api instance is configured with are exposed as converter property; it's an immutable object and cannot be changed to configure the api.
• Started providing library as ES module, in addition to UMD module. The module field in package.json points to an ES module variant of the library.
• Started using browser field instead of main in package.json (for the UMD variant of the library).
• Dropped support for IE < 10.
• Removed getJSON(): use Cookies.set('foo', JSON.stringify({ ... })) and JSON.parse(Cookies.get('foo')) instead.
• Removed support for Bower.
• Added minified versions to package - Please provide a compressed package of es6's module syntax in NPM. #501
• Improved support for url encoded cookie values (support case insensitive encoding) - problem with decode regexp #466, s.replace(/(%[0-9A-Z]{2})+/g, decodeURIComponent) error #530
• Expose default path via API - Expose path: / in defaults #541
• Handle falsy arguments passed to getters - Cookies.get(undefined) returns all cookies #399
• No longer support Node < 12 when building (LTS versions only)
